This is a very interesting list, and many of these tasks are carried out by
me using the Optacon.
In addition, I have been able to distinguish whether batteries are
rechargeable or not if I have got them mixed up.
I have marked washing machine, tumble dryer, cooker, etc, by initially using
the Optacon.
I can check whether a display is lighting up if something is faulty.
If the Braille is not present on medication, I can read necessary
information with the Optacon.
Reading newspaper articles is much easier with the Optacon.
I was able to read the diagrams in the manual of my musical keyboard, which
enabled me to learn how to use the recording sequencer.
When printing anything, I always check the top and bottom line of each
document, to ensure that the printer is working properly.
I use the Optacon in conjunction with a typewriter when writing greetings
cards, filling in forms, voting in elections, etc.
I can read the labels on clothing if I want to check their colour or size.
The possibilities are endless, but I will finish with a funny story.
One day I was at work, and it went very dark outside. We also
had a power cut. One of the staff wanted to look up a word in a
dictionary, and couldn't see it. I took the book off him, and
looked up the word form him, and read the definition to him.
Best wishes,
Peter
